Description:

This volume tells the story of a people who, though persecuted and impoverished, generated a vibrant religion, with all-pervasive homespun spirituality. Without churches or presbyteries, religion became people-centred. All the important ceremonies took place in the home - masses, christenings, confessions, weddings and wakes. It was a celebratory Church, enjoying its wakes no less than its weddings.
